    Is FC about? Viva? Any one else interested in the art of clothes?

    I saw this designer on etsy and wish I still had the figure for some of her stuff......

    DH likes the sheer knitted vests, predictably, but I like the little dresses and the acid bright 'sweaters'. And the big peach jumper. But I cannot work out WHY I like the peach jumper.....


    Anyway , I just thought it was nice.

    Oooh, love the long knitted dresses. Sadly I'm not 6ft tall and a size zero:o:(

    I quite like the peach jumper. It reminds me of a bowl of angel delight.

    Hehe, me neither.

    I like the little teal one with the beigey fleshy shoulders. I almost never wear blue (blue or silver are 'not for me' in my eye) but if I were a slip of a thing I'd be having that. And the very neutral coloured mini dress. And the short black one....and.....

    I quite like biographies. Especially of people I haven't got a clue who they are. :o

    I find biographies very dull. Autobigraphies on the other hand are often fascinating. Obviously the trend for irrelevant celebrities to release "autobiographies" at the age of 22 does not fall into the fascinating category because they haven't actually done anything. Embarrassingly my interest in autobiographies may have started when I found a discarded copy of Peter Stringfellow's autobiography in the bed draw of a rental house I moved into. It was a surprisingly interesting read. Not that I can recall any of the content...

    If I were to wear any of these clothes and pictures reached the press, it would kill off the business entirely .

    For waifs I think.

    It certainly didn't get me any closer to finding what I wanted to find, which was seem winter knit wear for a non waif.

    Of my last years knitwear....

    The sleeveless thing I lived in has a huge hole over the left tit.....:eek:

    The big grey chunky roll neck (which never looked goog anyway) has a thumb sized hole in the sleeve

    My faithful blush pink cashmere jumper which I wore every third day DH washed at fifty degrees......it will do for a snug under layer, but its certainly not smart or what you'd describe as a good fit anymore.

    The black cardi I have decided I hate, the boyfriend cardi I hate but am wearing......because its pretty much only thing left! I cannot find my cardis, and I think we've had moths in the bedroom. :(

    I need jumpers!
